Set in 1492, Italy, Jones Selibini finally decides to pursue his dream of becoming a writer. He arrives in Florence, the focal point of the Renaissance Era, in hopes of being recognized by Europe. From there he meets people from different backgrounds, all unique in their own ways.
However, a threat arises as the city becomes a battlefield of European supremacy. Worst of all, the Florentini government abandons its people, leaving them to suffer amidst the corruptions of the church. Bearing it no longer, Selibini takes a stand against its atrocities. Together with Rafaelo Bartollo, a young and inventive scholar, and Allegro Caladri, a frail but strong-spirited artist, the three of them work together to expose the corruptions and hidden truth inside this marvelous yet sinister city.

As one of the consigliere's docile daughters, her entire future had been stamped since she could tie her own shoelace. Marry Tiziano, the Don's volatile son. Smile at everything. Obey every rule. Die quietly inside. So when she dares to want something for herself, just once, her father makes sure she never forgets the price of defiance. Broken and bleeding from her furnished cage, Alessandra makes a break for it, only to discover life outside the cage is just as deadly. In Chicago, her last name makes her more disposable than desirable. Enter Renzo Santoro. Her family's most dangerous enemy. The last man she should ever be within ten feet of, much less want. She saves his life on instinct, with an identity that doesn't exist. Before she can regret either of those decisions, Renzo is already orbiting her little world. And the girl raised to fear men like him? She's starting to think fear and desire might feel exactly the same. When Renzo finds out who she really is, there is no corner of this earth cold enough to contain what she unlocks in him--the fury that wants a bullet in her, and the fixation that wants her regardless. Now the only thing more dangerous than loving a man like Renzo... is what he'll do to keep her from the men who got to break her before he even knew her. And that... that's when the real war begins. ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✦ ✦ ✦ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* ✦ ✦ ✦ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧Complet
